A tough and howlin’ harmonica-led three piece from South London, with a sound from Mississippi to New Orleans to Mali to Canvey Island. Signed to Lunaria Records, they are touring to promote their latest album, First and Last Stop, after having been nominated for best UK blues album and best UK blues band.
“★★★★” Mojo Magazine.
“Jimmy Regal and the Royals is one hell of a blues band and First and Last Stop is one hell of a blues album.” Steve Harrison, Blues Matters.
“Williams is an inventive guitarist and his duetting with Watkins is something quite joyful.” RnR Magazine.
“It’s not hard to hear why this outfit is carving a reputation on the live circuit.” Hi Fi News.
"This is just robust music in the hands of masters. Fans of original and nuanced blues and R&B will garner hours of enjoyment here." Blues Blast Magazine.
"(Gotta Make) A New Flame feels like a walk down the Crescent Cities Bourbon Street, while the driving funk of Micky Two Suits is typical of a band with the controls set to joyous." Classic Rock magazine.
